Poor Oscar had his surgery this week. We felt so bad for him. We knew he was special, but he had extra baby teeth he had to have taken out as well. Those special little extra teeth were extremely sharp on the fingers. Today, he is walking around and seems better. The outdoor movie at Sodus Point this weekend (August 21) is Titanic.

Ricotta Pie Recipe Courtesy Catherine Scorsese, Georgia Downard, Georgia Scorsese; Italian-American: The Scorsese Family Cookbook; Simon & Schuster; 1997 Crust:
2 cups all-purpose flour Filling:
1 1/2 pounds ricotta, drained well To make the pie crust: Into a bowl, sift the flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt. Add the shortening and blend until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs. In a bowl, whisk together the egg and 2 tablespoons of the ice water. Add the egg mixture to the flour mixture and toss to combine, adding more water, if necessary, to form a dough. Chill the dough, wrapped in plastic, until firm. On a lightly floured surface, roll out the dough into a circle 1/8-inch thick and fit it into a 9-inch pie pan. Crimp the edge, prick the bottom, and chill while making the filling. Filling: Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. In a large bowl with an electric mixer, beat the ricotta with the sugar until smooth. Add the eggs, 1 at a time, beating well after each addition. Beat in the vanilla and cinnamon. Stir in the candied fruit and chocolate chips. Pour the filling into the pie shell. Bake the pie for 45 minutes, or until just set. Let cool and chill. Do you want to do give something back to the Community? How about being a volunteer?
